James Harvey Coffey, Jr., son of James and Anna Eliza Graham Coffey, was born Jun., 1848 in Washington Co., IN. He died in 1904, probably in Washington Co., but I have not confirmed that. He married Diantha E. Boling, daughter of Gilbert and Martha E. Barrows Boling. She was born in April 1860 in Indiana. James and Diantha were married Dec. 8, 1883 in Washington Co.
